What about putting down the Bible all together? One could extract the teachings of Jesus from its muted 2,000 year old perspective. There is too much historical bias in that book. It is written in too old of a tongue. As many have pointed out it can be made to say whatever you want it to say. The Old Testament is full of horrendous evil that people did in the name of god. I think that one would be making a huge mistake by handing on to the Bible as the main source of wisdom and answers in Christianity.
